Captain John Smith, Jamestown's third president  

Did You Know?
Although John Smith was named as a Council member by the Virginia Company of London, he was not allowed to serve in that capacity at first because he had been accused of mutiny. Eventually, Smith became Jamestown’s third president of the Council.
